This study aims to analyze the feasibility of a project for the production of magnesium oxide nanoparticles using precipitation methods on a large scale. The feasibility analysis of this project was determined using an evaluation from an economic and engineering perspective. Evaluation from an engineering perspective is determined by the evaluation of the initial factory design and stoichiometric calculations. Meanwhile, the evaluation from an economic perspective is determined by several parameters, such as Payback Period, Gross Profit Margin, Cumulative Net Present Value, etc. The analysis results show that the production of magnesium oxide nanoparticles using the precipitation method can be carried out on an industrial scale. In this project, 11,250 kg ofmagnesium oxide nanoparticles were obtained per day, and the total profit earned was 1,881,184,752.91 USD in 10 years. Payback Period analysis shows that the investment will be profitable after more than three years. To ensure project feasibility, projects are estimated from ideal to worst-case conditions in production, including salary, sales, raw materials, utilities, and external conditions such as taxes

The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of a project for the manufacture of magnesium oxide nanoparticles using the sol-gel method by evaluating both technically and economically. Evaluation from the technical side is determined by stoichiometric calculations and evaluation of the initial factory design, while the evaluation from the economic side is determined by several parameters to determine the benefits of the project to be established (Gross Profit Margin, Internal Rate Return, Break-Even Point, Payback Period, and Cumulative Net Present Values). Some of these economic evaluation parameters were analyzed to inform the production potential of magnesium oxide nanoparticles, such as determining the level of profitability of a project (Gross Profit Margin), predicting the length of time required for an investment to return the initial capital expenditure (Payback Period), predicting the condition of a production project in the form of a production function in years (Cumulative Net PresentValue), etc. The results of the technical analysis show that this project can produce 1,425 kg of magnesium oxide nanoparticles per day and the total cost of the equipment purchased is 45,243 USD. Payback Period analysis shows that the investment will be profitable after more than three years. To ensure project feasibility, the project is estimated from ideal to worst-case conditions in production, including salary, sales, raw materials, utilities, as well as external conditions such as taxes

Wet chemical method was applied to prepare magnesium oxide nanoparticles using magnesium nitrate and sodium hydroxide as precursors in presence of starch as stabilizing agent. The XRD analysis of MgO nanoparticles showed the average particles size of crystallite as 12nm. SEM images also proved the crystalline nature of MgO nanoparticles. Antibacterial studies were done on gram positive (S. aureus) and gram negative (E.coli) bacteria using the above prepared nanoparticles by agar diffusion method. The zone of inhibition was found to more in S.aureus compared to E.coli. Since this method of preparation produced better yield in simple and cost effective way, it can be applied for large scale preparation of magnesium oxide nanoparticles.

AbstractRecently, plant-mediated route or green approach for preparing metal and metal oxide nanoparticles has received enormous attention due to the ease of preparation and environmental friendliness when compared to physical and chemical methods. Plants contain phytochemicals which have been proposed as bio-reductants and capping agents for forming metal nanoparticles. Therefore, this study was aimed to prepare magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgONPs) using aqueous extract of Manihot esculenta leaf. The leaf extract was first analyzed in a gas chromatograph–mass spectrometer (GC–MS) to examine the phytochemicals present. Then, the MgONPs formed were evaluated using UV–Visible (UV–Vis) spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, to confirm the formation of MgONPs and to determine the morphology, elemental composition, shape and size, phase composition and nature of bonds present in the sample. Results revealed the formation of monodisperse, hexagonal shaped MgONPs of average size 36.7 nm having potentials for application in catalysis and as antimicrobial agent. Hence the process reported herein could be optimized for large-scale preparation of MgONPs.

Eggshell Waste

The aim of this study is to evaluate the economic feasibility of manufacturing hydroxyapatite nanoparticles from eggshell waste. The economic analysis perspective is carried out by calculating various economic parameters, namely gross profit margin (GPM), payback period (PBP), break event point (BEP), internal rate return (IRR), creating net present value (CNPV), return on investment ( ROI) and profitability index (PI). The results show that the production of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles from eggshell waste is prospective. Technical analysis to produce 30,150 Kg of hydroxyapatite per year shows the total cost of equipment purchased is Rp. 230,580,000.00, and the total cost of raw materials is Rp. 890,235,720.00. The profit obtained from the sale of the product is Rp. 4,520,803,500.00/year. Within 20 years of the construction of this project, using eggshells as a raw material for production can reduce the accumulation of eggshell waste. This project can compete with PBP capital market standards due to the short return on investment of around 3 years. To ensure feasibility, the project is estimated from ideal to worst case conditions in production, including labor, sales, raw materials, utilities, as well as external conditions (taxes and subsidiaries). The benefits of this research are that it can provide information on the economic feasibility of manufacturing hydroxyapatite nanoparticles on a large scale, and can optimize/develop projects for further investigation.

magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) were prepared by simple wet chemical method using different calcination temperatures. The prepared NPs were characterized by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). It demonstrates sharp intensive peak with the increase of crystallinty and increase of the size with varying morphologies with respect to increase of calcination temperature. Antibacterial studies were done on gram negative bacteria (E.coli) and gram positive bacteria (S.aureus) by agar disc diffusion method. The zones of inhibitions were found larger for gram positive bacteria than gram negative bacteria, this mean, antibacterial MgO NPs activity more active on gram positive bacteria than gram negative bacteria because of the structural differences. It was found that antibacterial activity of MgO NPs was found it has directly proportional with their concentration.

Background: Rubber vulcanization is a consolidated chemical process to enhance the mechanical properties of the polymeric material by sulfur crosslinking of the polymer chains, such as rubber. Vulcanization Activators are important rubber processing additives that activate sulfur cure and improve the efficiency of sulfur-based cure systems. The most common activator is zinc fatty acid ester that is often formed in-situ by the reaction of fatty acid with zinc oxide. Although zinc is one of the less harmful heavy metals, according to European Council Directive 2004/73/EC, the reduction of zinc level in the environment has become an important task because of its toxic effect on aquatic organisms. : The current study reviews the research achievements in the field of reducing the consumption of micronutrients of ZnO particles based on the use of nanoparticles instead of them in the polymer industry. Among the proposed methods, due to the less environmental effects of magnesium oxide, the use of MgO nanoparticles instead of zinc oxide has also achieved good results. Objective: The aim of this paper is considering suggested different methods on the reduction of using ZnO particles in related industries, the use of ZnO nanoparticles has had better results than its particles. In addition, due to the less environmental effects of magnesium oxide, magnesium oxide nanoparticles can be used instead of micronutrients of zinc oxide. Overall, the results of various investigations show that reducing the diameter of the zinc oxide particles reduces the amount required for curing the rubber and thus reduces its toxic effects. Also, the use of magnesium oxide nanoparticles instead of zinc oxide in different concentrations is investigated.
